i never, ever get out of work when i'm supposed to. this is one of the billion things on the the list of things that suck about my job. but tonight, for the first time in months, i got off of work just in time to swing by the farmers market before it closed.

the famers market in santa cruz is small, but very cool. pretty much everything is organic, and they sell my favorite kind of bread there! most weeks, though, i don't have a lot of money, and i've never been an adventurous eater, so i usually stick to the staples. bread, lettuce, broccoli, strawberries, carrots, etc. what i really wanted today was apples, but i didn't see any. that's another drawback of my work schedule... lots of the farmers are already packing up (or gone) by the time i get there.

i love buying the organic stuff, though, because once i get past the fact that the fruits and veggies don't always look perfect, everything seems to taste better. mmmm.

for example, i did not file my taxes until april 15th. as if that wasn't bad enough, i didn't even do them until about 11 am on the 15th.

i was totally going to do my taxes early. i mean, why not? why put off getting all my money back, and really, how hard can it be?

HAH.

another example - this new design has been done for about 4 days, and i just didn't put it up.

i am determined not to be a slacker tomorrow, though.... the back bedroom in my house has recently been vacated for the first time in over a year, and i am reclaiming it as my office, and i have a lot of furniture to move! i managed to cram one of the couches in there, i got a new bookshelf, and i'm moving a table and an end table from the living room. plus the tv and computer are moving, too. i'm hoping that the absence of electronic distractions in my bedroom will help me sleep better.

my bedroom's getting a makeover, too... i splurged at target and bought some newbedding. it was expensive, so i'm keeping it in the packages in case it goes on clearance sometime soon. all i need now is a big cushy chair and an ottoman. mmm, ikea, anyone?
